HTML and CSS – P1
What CSS this?
CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets. CSS is a language that describes the layout and formatting of any mock-up language for example HTML, XML and XHTML. The majority of web pages these days use CSS to present their data because CSS really brings the web pages to life.

CSS defines how the HTML structure will be presented. Being able to style the HTML elements makes it so that you can present your data in a more readable and understandable manner.

P: I am styling the p element so that it will have a grey box shadow of 5px; with a pink background.
P.pad: I am styling a P class attribute with a padding property which will give the element a 20px to and bottom and a 50px left and right.
